Clarks Women's Arla Shore Flat Sandal

Just received the sandals, I have been looking and trying on sandals for years, due to long feet and long toes never found a good sandal expect flip flops. I love love love these sandals, 7 1/2 they fit perfect, feet don't slide when walking, the fit is perfect around the top of the foot and velcro strap. They are cute, durable and even wash in the washing machine. I have several pairs of Clarke boots and shoes but this is the first for a sandal. I should have tried years ago. Love them and highly recommend them.

Why did you pick this product vs others?:I've been a big fan of Clarks shoes for years. These sandals do not disappoint. The material is very soft, so doesn't chafe my feet like other sandals have done. And they are deceivingly lightweight. They were comfortable right out of the box. I wish they came in more colors.

I have tried a dozen different pair of casual shoes and sandals. None of them have worked with my aging, growing, spread out feet. I also have a severe bunion that will have to be surgically removed. But these sandals are truly some of the most comfortable sandals I have worn in a long time!Clark Cloudstepper flip flops are equally comfortable and these Clark Cloudstepper sandals are wonderful!!

Why did you pick this product vs others?:I've always been impressed with the comfort and quality of Clarke's shoes and sandals. I can wear these sandals all day and my feet are not sore at all. The straps are supportive, but not tight at all. I highly recommend these sandals!

These are really comfortable overall and cute, which is a plus because I need to have shoes that are cute with a dress while also functional as an actual shoe and not as a decoration. I have wide feet with high arches and I don't like anything with much of a heel. I'm a wedding photographer and I wore them for an 8 hour wedding and they definitely helped by back and feet and legs feel better than usual throughout the day. It was also a 100 degree heat index with 80% humidity and they helped make the day slightly more tolerable lol. The one thing I will say is that the wide are not as wide as most wides...they fit but they're snugger than I would like/more narrow than most shoes labeled "W". Also, if you have wide or swollen ankles to go with your wide feet, they might feel tight or uncomfortable around the ankle throughout the day. Having said that, when I first tried them on I was worried they were going to cause blisters and rub spots around the ankle, but I ran some errands in them and they got more comfortable very quickly once they were worn an hour or so the fabric felt like it softened/stretched very slightly. (these are NOT stretchy sandals though).

Worn about 4 times since purchasing, very very happy with the size recommendation, comfort while walking, arch and heel support, and strength of the velcro on the ankle strap to say in the shoe. These are replacing a pair of walking sandals I got from crocs years ago that were strappy but stretchy slip on bands, but the treads wore out prompting needing an upgrade. I will be curious how long they last, but with how comfortable they have been so far, I am pretty sure they are going to be my go to shoe for the summer for a few years.

Super comfortable! I wore these all day at Magic Kingdom and my feet have never been more comfortable. I took a chance with these shoes and they surpassed my expectations!! If you are thinking about getting these stop thinking and just GET THEM!!

A bit of a story to go with this review:I've been looking for a sandal that offered comfort and style for over a month. I've shopped every store in town and tried several from Amazon (Thank You for your patience Amazon!) - and couldn't find one. I was leaving the grocery store and noticed that the lady parked next to me was wearing the exact sandal I had been looking for!! I asked her what they were, and bless her heart she took it off to check - and even let me take a picture. I sat in my car and immediately went onto Amazon. Lo & behold my journey was done !! I am so thrilled with them that ordered another pair as a backup in case anything ever happened to pair #1. There's absolutely no break-in required & can confidently say these won't be the shoes that you'll wanna sling across the room cuz you'll be so glad to be out of at the end of the day. They look great no matter what you choose to wear. Based on the reviews I ordered up a half size - yes, good advice ! They're light weight without compromising cushioned comfort and stability. The heel is the perfect rise to take pressure off the lower back & hips, and the sole offers non-slip concern. Best of all they're just as cute as can be !No doubt Amazon is glad I won't be in the "return cycle" anymore :)
